Sheer numbers of birds

["Geoffrey Dabb" <>]

I wonder if the parliamentary triangle, or a part of it,  would have a reasonable claim to a top ranking for  highest number of  birds in Australia in the same area.  Over the last few days I have noticed flocks in the hundreds of cockatoos and wood ducks, just in the area between Treasury (if that’s what it still is) and the John Gorton building.  There are also large numbers of Galahs, not to mention the bush birds in the shrubberies and euc plantings.  Quite a few honeyeaters too.
